Notas del episodio

In the Crown of Aragon, 639 years ago, Joan wrote to Marti about their father's books and astronomical instruments. In a move that appears rather vulturous, Joan asks his brother to secure some of their dying father’s precious possessions. In this episode Jonathan also discusses Catalan humanism and introduces Joan and Violant's cultural contributions.
